>>740276312And anyone who was gonna buy a PS5 already has one. GTA will sell, but it won't sell consoles.
>>740275832They said in their own report that their profit came from mtx, increased sub prices and currency exchange
>>740276352
>>740276601The PS3 isn't the PS5. You cannot count on a multiplat to sell an 800 dollar console.

I suspect consoles are going to make a comeback in the next few years since they can subsidize the cost of their hardware to make it still able to be purchased by normal people while PC hardware is just going to keep getting more and more expensive. Amazing that the most profitable entertainment industry in the world is being allowed to collapse for the sake of worthless AI shit, but that's just the world we live in I guess.
>>740276875No one is buying the shitty digital only brick.
>Those likesYikes, this game is not off to a good start.
>>740276939if it's the cheapest way to play gta vi then of course they are

>>740275832>PS3 loss money.>PS5 made money.The world is so unfair.
>>740275832it's a shame the PS5 is so successful even though it has barely any good exclusive game, the PS4 gen had way more great games even 6 years into the gen
>>740279418The PS4 has literally one single game.
